I didn't vote for Carter, and think he was an amazingly weak President, but you might be surprized to learn that his 1980 budget was virtually identical to Reagan's. A close friend of mine made it the subject of a thesis. We look back at Presidents Reagan and Carter as being political extremes. In reality there were only subtle differences (aside from the 'vision' thing and basic leadership issues). We look at Bush and Gore and have to go WAY out of our way to find differences. There have never been two more homogeneous candidates in American history. For me, issue wise, it came down to the environment (I perceived Gore better) and education (I've come to believe in a stronger role at the Federal level). That's really not much. Other than that, the two (issue wise) are pretty much the same flavor of vanilla. -JCJ
